Thanks for working that out, LB.
Now, how to catch up with Janev ... ?
Did 54/0 today and can see the back of the shed and actually STAND INSIDE the doorway. Another week or so and I should make it to the back, maybe.

Janev, I just build new shelves when I run out of space on the ones I've got, well, usually a couple of years after I run out of space. ;D I'm sort of running out of walls now. I find it does make the rooms smaller and easier to heat, though. kathymel you crack me up me and darling daughter had a lovely moment today reading your post i was on the floor crying with laughing - she was on setee nearly wetting herself ;D thanks for that xx got a friend visiting whos on your wavelength and is so happy that you are going to make a water feature of your beloved (stones) so thats 3 people youve cheered today ;D - - - - - oh and ;D ;D ' speech ,speech ' i hear you all crying -- oh no wait minute thats L.B. REALLY CRYING oooh don't worry you too will be as great as me one day ;D ;D janev - 28 points, Wales 28 - ( Scotland 18 ) come on you welsh we're doing well today !!! ;D

p.s. good luck with the forms - i hate stuff like that talking of forms remember the neat piles i had few months back and the 5 carrier bags behind the setee - well it all ended up there in the end !!! should prob dig all that out this week also have to say L.B. u sure you can do maths - how can c hopper have more ponts than u when he only dumped few pieces paper once or twice? - - - and you e bayed your stuff by the way if your selling on ebay you are now able to donate securely and instantaneously a small percentage of what you sell through ebay to addiss. addiss is now a registered charity with ebay. (am i allowed to say that on here ?) go for the points for kathymel (i'l still walk it any way ;D) god i havn't been up this late for ages off now night xxx

I added up all our points and divided them by 3 so claudhopper started with the average. I only ebayed two of the four which means the penalty cancelled out the bonus :-(. Also janev your points for scrap man haven't been added to that score cause was going to add them on tues and there's the not so small matter of your treadmill? We've heard nothing ;D ;D ;D sadly cause you need it gone I will still give you double points if you have found someone to sell it for you by tues :-( Much as janev's few failings give me pleasure, if anyone on here can work out a way of giving her a hand with selling the treadmill they can also have 2 points. I will be thinking on this through the day and my partner has a day off :-D yay, so I will be asking him for advise when he wakes up and has at least 3 coffees in him ;D. Also Janev, not sure how we can divide your paper work into sections? Would getting one of those expanding folders help? If so how about a point for each thing completely filed in right place, e.g. all gas bills and gas info crap filed = 1pt? Just an idea, what is it you think your going to have the most oh nooo's from in terms of paper work? Maybe if your done decluttering for the mo, we can work out your points for next week (excluding scrap an which is already agreed), around the treadmill and your paperwork? Claudhopper, is there anything you need your arse kicking over? I'll rephrase that. Is there anything you're going to ADMIT needing you arse kicking over? what do you find difficult? Cause its win win on here, either you get some points or I/we get the pleasure of ribbing you mercilessly, so your spreading joy

;D hey kathymel and chopper what you reckon on L.B . deserving extra points for all the encouragement and support she gives us (in darling daughter speak - 'nagging' ) you lot have to work it out though - you know me and maths (and don't go getting carried away giving her enough to take over my lead position ) oooh and here's my weekly confession - not sure if deserve title of domestic godess again this week as one load of washing done at launderette is still in basket in bath and starting to smell rather foul

kathymel you crack me up me and darling daughter had a lovely moment today reading your post i was on the floor crying with laughing - she was on setee nearly wetting herself ;D thanks for that xx Lovely to know I've made you laugh. LB, it was 54/0 because everything in the shed was mostly too rotten to pass on to people/charity so I did twice as much in the bin. I've got a pile of things to clean though and they'll become the start of today's charity 27. But first, I'd better start working out my accounts for this hellish Housing Benefit form. Grrrrr. I need to put it through their letterbox this evening on the way to Preston. OH! I nearly forgot! I got some more work! Only a few hours for now with a friend that I have worked for in the past, but it should increase. Hurrah! Janev, I bought myself a wee filing cabinet a while back. The initial novelty and enthusiasm made me sort out all my paperwork. These days, I usually have to have several tottering piles before I file anything, but it does eventually get done. CH, you've been very quiet ... ?

;D just a quicky cos for some reason my brain is like the road runner on speed today and can't keep a thought together!! 27/27 done but havn't digested all info in previous posts properly yet so am unsure if thats what was supposed to be doing still? will check later or tomorrow when my brain calms down a bit also 27 things given away were given to a 'vicar' so wondering does that get me extra points

Post by Kathymel on Mar 10, 2013 23:35:47 GMT
27/27 done. Gave my 27 to the vicar today, too! Love a bit of synchronicity, me. Also, finished preparing a presentation for an assessment, tomorrow. Fingers crossed! AND, I finished my accounts for HB and posted the form. Chuffed.

Well done getting all that sorted (what you just posted - have forgot exactly what it said now ) Don't know why but my brain is on over drive the past few days off to read past posts now to check what am supposed to be doing today - much as i love you both have to retain my supremacy ;D

Janev if you've still got decluttering to do. Do that, post a message if you've finally run out! ;D.
You will get extra points for buying a folder file and doing what said in above post.
Kathymel - same as janev but your forms and assignments are first xxx
4pts yesterday - starting and finishing presentation, the HB form thing and 27? What's happened to you? I am not impressed!!! Well I am but I'm disgusted with myself for being so!
I rally need to get to grips with certain routines for my kids, now the meds are working a bit, but can't work out how to go about it and what's most important. However when I've got my head round that I'll post it on here and you two can work out the points, if that's ok.

Post by Kathymel on Mar 11, 2013 12:40:03 GMT
I agree with Janev, LB, you should get points for keeping the score.
I've decided today's task is going to be looking in all the outside lockers and clearing the rubbish out of them. I inherited quite a few odds and ends with the boat and I'm positive I don't need them ALL!
Also going to begin next assignment.
Here goes.

oooh girls (cos i think c hopper has absconded! ) i''m not my normally amazing self today! the only thing i can say is my mate is still here and is distracting me big time!! and - - - its sooooo cold!! so all i've done is bin 26 - but i am going to get up in a min and drag the washer and w.mach out into the street!!! i already have one of them expanding folders L.B. just got to find it don't think i'l get around to that tonight though if i'm honest. (but you wouldn't want me to be bad mannered and ignore my guest now would you ) and she's very disapproving of my new found hobby - talking to you two that is by the way have realised that my brain train last few days is probably due to new (builders) size cup that i've bought for the 1 cup of coffee i'm allowed in the morning - - but put 3 huge teaspoons of coffee in and have been cheating and having a second cup and thinking oh its only 1 extra cup when really altogether works out to equate to 4 cups!!! in less than hour!!! so looks like am gonna be lagging on points today - - - -but never say never i could just be giving you false hope

Post by Kathymel on Mar 11, 2013 23:48:06 GMT
Well, I have been a bit crap. I got no further than looking at the list of possible assignment questions and haven't even lifted a lid on a locker. Must be something in the air today. Will try harder tomorrow.
I did get over to PlanetDave's place for the Manchester meet, though, which was nice. I decided to get a burger on the way back, so I'm sat in a nice warm place, rather than the boat which will be FREEZING when I get in.
Why doesn't your friend approve of us, Janev?

;D, love the job description. I personally have been asking for a slave every Christmas and birthday for years. It's harder than getting a chainsaw out of other half . Did 27/27 on loft yesterday. Wrote routineish I want to be able to follow but can't find where I put the bloody thing. Was it janev that started this slump? Anyway I think it is MORNINGS Me showered and dressed. Littles ones dressed. By 7:45 Cook sons breakfast and little ones porridge etc... ( my youngest is 2 and normally has a slice of beans on toast ans two large bowls of porridge! And that's just to start the day, worst thing is he is just slightly under on the height weight scales, so all the money and time I put into his huge appetite doesn't show! Not fair! ), rant over, moving on. Cook oldests school lunch and have ready by 8 Daughters bag coat etc...done by 8:20 EVENINGS Dinner cooked by 5:30 Little ones bathed around 7 Little ones book, songs and bed by 8pm Have all our clothes out for the next day and all stuff needed in or by bags by 8:30 If oldest hasn't had bath/shower by 8:30, launch him in there! Can I have points for doing these things and if so how many, bearing in mind I have never achieved this? xxx Oh yeah and kathymel, do 10 mins a time on your assignments etc... For mo. it might not get you very far but it's better than nothing and will get your thought processes heading that way xxx

I haven't done anything for two days. Someone asked me to look over their dissertation and, as other people's work is always much more attractive than my own, I spent quite a long time doing that and didn't achieve anything on my list. I'm back home now and really need to start working on my end of year assignments. I suspect nothing else will get done until mid May. Going to stand in the corner, now.

Haven't worked out scores yet but have decluttered so much this week I'm probably winning ;D ;D ;D Have been avoiding going on here as much as poss cause its the only time I sit down and so had to try and cut it out to try and catch up , plus having one of those weeks where my friends that don't all know each other but must have bloody mind linked or something! Have decided its time I gave my arse a break and pulled my head out of it for a brief visit into life. God I'm sad! But v lucky friendship wise. Unfortunately have been on go so much I could barely get up the stairs yesterday. Felt like I'd been hit by a truck , so going to slow myself down a tiny little bit next week , if my body could keep up with my head I recon I could fly. Don't worry janev, a lot of what I've been doing hasn't been part of the challenge, so your probably still winning by a point or two ;D. Will work them out later. I love how much you love urn rugby. I enjoy it live, or did the one time I went. Hope your doing well with your assignments kathymel.

Hi there. Sorry not been in touch. Haven't really achieved an awful lot (apart from some marathon Freecell sessions ) I have started one assignment, so that's positive. Nothing else to report, really. Sounds like you two are both going great guns. Well done, chaps. *salutes briskly*

Haven't really achieved an awful lot (apart from some marathon Freecell sessions what's that then? i havn't done much either really - now got comfortable living room to chill in and no dishes to wash ( and no competition ) doesn't seem so important anymore. got plans to finish everything when have week off though as bedroom still a pit and kitchen stinks of glue since pulled lino up and keep thinking is it affecting me by breathing in there? and still have to get cooker connected to the gas! have had loads sorting to do for d daughter, meetings and referrals and stuff so havn't been on here much. good luck with the assignments xx (and to L.B. for getting meds dose right xx)
